The council offers people living in Blackburn with Darwen, a free home safety check. With your permission, we will check every room and give you advice on simple no-cost changes you can make to prevent accidents and stay safe in your home. The decent and safe home service can carry out most of these suggestions for you if you are unable to do them for yourself.

This service is available to people over 60 or those who are unsteady on their feet however referrals from other organisations can be considered for adults of all ages.
